My Swap Goodies

Good Sunday morning friends!

Warning,

Long picture post...

The sun is out but more snow on the way,

then turning to freezing rain and back to rain.

Currently we have ice in the river.

It comes down from Lake Huron down

to us and jams up where the river turns into

2 channels that go into Lake St. Clair.

When the ice comes in the ducks leave.



I received my goodies from Amy's

Valentine Swap.

My swap partner was Fran from

www.thebagglady.blogspot.com

I forgot my camera at the store,

so when I opened the box,

it took every ounce of me not to open these

packages right away.

But I waited until the snow stopped and went to the store

grabbed the camera and drove back home as quick as I could.

I was tickled pink at all of the goodies I received from Fran!

Bob and I ate the cookies right away last night...yummy!

Mikayla loved the rose pen and begged me to have it.

Being the softie gramma that I am,

I let her use it.

Fran gave us a personalized wood heart that reads

Robert

XOXOXO

We love it Fran!

One of Fran's dolls in my favorite colors!

Plus her little friend...too cute!

I proudly put them both on my kitchen cabinet.

This pic is not very good, but this is a miniature paper calendar

with February 14th marked off in red with a red heart.

The entire calendar is clipped together with a clothespin.

Then she gave me this.

This jar of homemade Strawberry Rhubarb Jam

These fabric strawberries are adorable!







I love this jar because it was from my hometown roots

of Port Sanilac, MI

Fran visits the same places as Bob and I do.

We probably have been at the same place and did not even know it.

A great big

HUG
